Dan and I have taken a few days off of work, something we both needed badly, to spend some good quality family time together. Quincy turned 14 months on Thursday, and we decided to do something fun. We went on his first visit to the Zoo. It wasn't Woodland Park in Seattle, but a smaller and lesser known Zoo in Issaquah. It was perfect, a small "taste" of the Zoo without the crowds. They had two tigers, some cougars and lemurs and lots of parrots, reindeer and alpacas. Quin's favorite parts of the Zoo were all the brass animal statues, steps to go up and down on, and the highlight of the trip... wooden benches to climb on (can I tell you how glad I am he was free?). He was such a good boy all day long, even without a good nap in. It was a very fun day. Today the fun continued! Quincy and I got some free passes to the "Kids Quest" museum we went to last week with Darla and Millie and decided to visit again, this time with Daddy. He just loves that place, although today's visit was MUCH busier than our last mellow Wednesday afternoon visit. It was still a lot of fun and we had to tear him away from the place, but I wasn't going to let him skip a nap again today. That results in a very crabby baby! His favorite part of today was playing with the water exhibits they have. That was Dan's favorite part too, he made a dam, and was like a little kid! We still have 3 more days off work, and I am hoping that at least one day will be spent getting some much needed projects done around the house (much to Dan's dismay!)
